John Maggs believes that Peacehaven & Telscombe and Leatherhead are looking like being Hastings United’s main title rivals this season.

Peacehaven top the Ryman Football League Division One South table at Christmas having won 10 and drawn two of their last 12 league games. Leatherhead are just two points off the pace in third.

United manager Maggs said: “I’ve seen Leatherhead a couple of times and I think they’re probably the strongest squad in the league. You can’t do anything else, but give credit to Peacehaven, who have done extremely well. All the time they’re winning you’ve got to respect that they’re one of the sides who are going to be challenging alongside ourselves.”
